Smart Game Booster

Even a high-end gaming system can be slowed down significantly by the many processes and services that are often running in the background, many of which can be disabled safely, at least temporarily.

Smart Game Booster is a nifty application that enables you to perform these optimizations with a single mouse click, and then restore the standard configuration when the gaming session has ended. It allows you to perform various system tweaks, as well as monitor temps are framerate in-game.

While the various Windows and non-Windows services that are usually running in the background do have their purpose, they are often not required while playing games, which means they can be stopped safely in order to boost your system’s performance.

Normally, you would have to find and disable them manually, which is a tedious and time-consuming task. Smart Game Booster can perform this operation instantly, and then start the processes again when you have finished playing your game.

Less experienced users should find the default configuration to be more than adequate, but it is also possible to specify which processes or services should be disabled, as well as have the application clear your RAM before launching a game.

Speaking of games, it is possible to add them all, whether they are local or web-based. When launching them from the app, the Boost mode is activated automatically. However, it would have been great if you had the option of launching games from the system tray menu.

Certain tweaks can improve your PC’s performance even when you are not playing any games, without any noteworthy side effects. Understandably, though, many users prefer to avoid altering any registry settings manually.

Smart Game Booster can make things easier for you, as it allows you to fine-tune various parameters directly from its intuitive UI, while also offering helpful explanations.

Gamers should be pleased to learn that this application can record CPU, GPU and motherboard temperatures, and then present this data in the form of a real-time graph.

Moreover, this information can be displayed in-game, along with the current frame rate. A customizable hotkey can be used to toggle the OSD.

On the whole, Smart Game Booster is an intuitive, well-designed optimization utility that can boost your PC’s performance while gaming, as well as help you perform a number of system tweaks. It is unobtrusive and very easy to use, so gamers who wish to make the most of their resources should definitely give it a try.
